Physicists Deploy Quantum Sensors to Hunt the Universe’s Missing Matter
Dark matter makes up most of the universe’s mass, yet it has never been directly detected. Scientists are now deploying ultracold quantum sensors, underground detectors and space telescopes to catch its faint signals. At Texas A&M, new silicon detectors aim to register extremely rare particle interactions, while global experiments push sensitivit...

Fusion Reactors Could Generate Axions, Offering a New Path to Detect Dark Matter
Fusion energy may have an unexpected cosmic role beyond clean power. A new study suggests fusion reactors could produce axions, hypothetical dark matter particles, when high-energy neutrons from fusion reactions strike reactor walls. These interactions may generate axions that escape shielding undetected. Scientists propose future fusion plants cou...

Neutrino Detectors May Unlock the Search for Light Dark Matter, Physicists Say
Physicists now believe that massive neutrino detectors—built to observe rare solar and cosmic particles—could also detect extremely light dark matter that traditional experiments miss. By monitoring subtle annual variations in their background signals, observatories like JUNO and Borexino may open a new frontier in uncovering the universe’s m...

Berkeley Lab Researchers Record Successful Startup of Next-Generation LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Detector
Berkeley Lab Researchers recently recorded the successful startup of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, the next-generation dark matter detector that is housed below the Black Hills in South Dakota at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF). The experiment is one of three Generation 2 dark matter experiments selected by the US Department of Ener...
